A lot of it is really bs chit chat... but here you go.
I also translated an article on max-nuri a while back...

Caption to photo: These are the painted parts. That's one step completed for the time being. After the parts dry, we'll move on to spraying the parts white.

Ohgoshi: Just finished spraying black! It's now completely black! At [my] speed, it took around 4-5 hours. However, this is only base preparation. The real task is what follows!
[Paint Viscosity and the Trick to Spraying]
Max: Now, shall we start mixing the white that we're going to use to paint the Gundam?
Ohgoshi: Eh? I thought we were going to use the "Gundam White" that's sold on the market?
Max: Well, mixing your own colors is also an important part of the Max-painting method. In the case of First Gundam (RX-78), taking into account the entire balance of the model, "pure white" comes to mind. That's why I use pure white as a base, and add small amounts of clear blue, clear red and neon pink to create a purplish white.

Ohgoshi: Clear and neon colors? Both are new for [me]...
Max: Clear colors (paint) are known for creating running and blotting problems. With the Max method, we instead use this to our advantage.
Caption to photo: Mix clear red, clear blue etc... to white to create our own white for Gundam. The fun part is to mix your own colors to suit your own vision and preference.
Caption to photo 2: On the left is the mixed Gundam White, on the white is Pure White. The Gundam White that we have created this time has a beautiful purple tint.
Max: This tint of color is really only something that can be done with clear colors. If it were solid color paints, it would get too murky. Since its very difficult to get exactly the same shade of color again, its better to mix a little more paint just in case. If you make the equivalent of around 3 lacquer paint bottles worth of paint, it won't be too excessive, yet you won't run out.
Ohgoshi: In addition to that, is there anything else that we need to be careful about with respect to paints?
